What a great topic, I think this will be very useful across the boards as I hear often on the forums how difficult it is to find a suitable therapist. Thank you for running this. I'm not sure I can attend but will read afterwards.

Our pleasure @NatureLover I'm glad it's something that sounds like will resonate. No worries- if you're unable to make it in real time, there will be a transcript posted afterwards to have a look back over. You're also welcome to start a thread for further discussion if that's something you'd like 😊
